So kenny the kangaroo went to the cd exchange dahn in squirrel hill yesterday and lo and behold, they had a few (new, in package) Random Access Memories CD's chilling on their shelves for 9.99. Kenny the kangaroo thought it was odd that they either didnt care or did not know that the cd was supposed to be released until next week. But whatever, if you just cant wait to get your hands on Daft Punks new cd, go to squirrel hill.

Thus far, kenny the kangaroo is a bit on the dissapoint side. Obviously the trend with this type of music has been the skrillex/deadmaus/scratchy noises/shrieky noises bass stuff. Reading about this daft punk album, kenny the kangaroo was encouraged that DP was not going in that direction.

Unfortunately, at least for this gentleman, its not really a good direction. Kenny the kangaroo fell in loving with daft punk while driving for hours on the PA Turnpike listening to all those catchy, lightly, fluffly enjoyable sounds. This new album is kind of a turn from that old d punk sound. kenny the kangaroo respects and gets that d-punk is trying to do something different and something new. What they are trying to do, its unclear.

If you're feeling adventurous, you should go in a different direction and check out Caravan Palace or Wax Tailor.

Which is a Beatles cover..

And

I love both of these songs. But I am courious if they all feature clean vocals like these do.

Very late to the party. They're definitely solid and bring a fresh Blue Oyster Cult type vibe to the modern rock scene. And yes, both albums and every song have vocals like that, which is funny because their singer, as hard as he tries to hide his identity, came from underground death metal legends Repugnant.

I definitely like this band a lot. Really its the laid back vibe ala BOC like you said. I need some new music to get me excited again.
